Following the one-week Institute program, students are encouraged to write up their projects to be chapters in a future publication. To assist in this process we include here a set of slides by Dr. Buechner:

The slides in the above link on critical thinking describe a simple method for determining how good the reasons for your claims are. That is, they describe a simple method for critically assessing arguments. This is the ONLY method; anything else you might have learned is a fraud. Read it again and again, until it becomes a natural extension of yourself!! - Dr. Jeff Buechner
